Don't Forget Your Shovel |
Don’t forget your shovel if you want to go to work |
Oh don’t forget your shovel if you want to go to work |
Don’t forget your shovel if you want to go to work |
Or you’ll end up where you came from like the rest of us |
Diggin', diggin', diggin'… |
And don’t forget your shoes and socks and shirt and tie and all |
Don’t forget your shoes and socks and shirt and tie and all |
Mr murphy’s afraid you’ll make a claim if you take a fall |
(«how's it goin'» «not too bad») |
And we want to go to heaven but we’re always diggin' holes |
We want to go to heaven but we’re always diggin' holes |
Yeah we want to go to heaven but we’re always diggin' holes |
Well there’s one thing you can say… we know where we are goin'… |
(«any chance of a start?» «no» «okay») |
And if you want to do it… don't you do it against the wall |
If you want to do it… don't you do it against the wall |
Never seen a toilet on a building site at all |
There’s a shed up in the corner where they won’t see you at all |
(«mind your sandwiches») |
Enoch powell will give us a job, diggin' our way to annascaul |
Enoch Powell will give us a job, diggin' our way to annascaul |
Enoch Powell will give us a job, diggin' our way to annascaul |
And when we’re finished diggin' there they’ll close the hole and all |
Now there’s six thousand five hundred and fifty-nine paddies |
Over there in london all trying to dig their way back to annascaul |
And very few of them boys is going to get back at all… |
I think that’s terrible |
Don’t forget your shovel if you want to go to work |
Don’t forget your shovel if you want to go to work |
Oh, don’t forget your shovel if you want to go to work |
Or you’ll end up where you came from like the rest of us |
Diggin', diggin', diggin'… |
